Item 8.01 Other Events
On October 10, 2017, Black Ridge Oil &
Gas, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCQB:ANFC) issued a press release in which it announced the completion of the initial public
offering by Black Ridge Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ:BRACU) (“BRAC”), a special purpose acquisition corporation sponsored
by the Company. The Company used a portion of the proceeds of its rights offering completed on September 26, 2017 to purchase 400,000
units at $10 per unit to fulfill its sponsorship commitment. The Company will purchase up to an additional 45,000 units at $10.00
per unit if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase units to cover over allotments. The Company previously purchased
3,450,000 shares (of which 450,000 could be subject to forfeiture if the underwriter’s over-allotment is not exercised in
full) of BRAC’s common stock for $25,000.
In its initial public offering, BRAC sold
12,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $120,000,000. The units are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market
(“NASDAQ”) and trade under the symbol “BRACU.” Each unit consists of one share of BRAC’s common stock,
one warrant to purchase one share of BRAC’s common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, and one right to receive one-tenth
of one share of BRAC’s common stock only upon the consummation of an initial business combination by BRAC. Once the securities
comprising the units begin separate trading, the common stock, warrants and rights are expected to be listed on NASDAQ under the
symbols “BRAC,” “BRACW,” and “BRACR,” respectively.
The underwriters have
been granted a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,800,000 units offered by BRAC to cover over-allotments, if any.
EarlyBirdCapital, Inc.,
acted as a representative of the underwriters for the offering
.
